Alex Honnold is an expert
solo climber. In this documentary he tries to become the first person to
free solo climb Yosemite's 3,000ft high "El Capitan" Wall. With no ropes or
safety gear! The full cast includes:
Tommy Caldwell as Himself,
Jimmy Chin as Himself,
and
Sanni McCandless as Herself.

Starts off with a top view of a climber climbing a
mountain. I'ts cool. He puts his hands on a hole
in the cliff face. He doesn't use equipment. It's
called "Free Solo" climbing. The climber gets interviewed
on TV and radio. He says he previously free solo'd
"half dome", a famous rock face.

It's Spring 2016 and Alex is in Yosemite. He says
that "climbing had had an impact on his dating life"
hehe. He continues and says "I think I'll always
choose climbing over a lady" hehe. He chooses the
"Freerider" route (a route is made up of the several
positions that you need to climb to get to the top).
There is an older climbver called "Tommy Caldwell"
that was a hero of Alex.

They plan to climb "El Capitan". Alex says that El
Capitan should only be climbed by rope. Alex explains
that he mainly eats vegetables hehe. He visits
students and they ask him "how does it feel to turn your
hobby into your profession". "Sandy" is his girlfriend.
Alex explains that she dropped the rope once. He
fractured a part of his spine... outch! He said he
wanted to break up with her after that hahaha. They
start climbing Yosemite.

Alex climbs and the photographers have rope. The
photographers have to face that solo climbers can
fall and die. Then we see footage of old cimbers in
the newspaper and video footage of them falling
and passing away. It's quite intense.

"You see footage of a close shot of Alex climbing.
It's exciting to see these close shots of the
feet and hands. It feels like your there. You
realise that his life is a game of inches"

He falls down and sprains his ankle. After some
rehab he still climbs and shows resilience.
He retells his younger life, it's very interesting.
His dad loved climbing. His parents got divorced when
he was still young. The landscapes are beautiful.

"He says 'if I perish you can find another climber'.
You realise that Alex is a very strong determined
person with no fear"

When he prepares for a climb, he climbs with a rope.
Then he does another Yosemite climb. You see close
footage. He jumps from one pose (two hands on rock)
to another level. Wow, this practice jump is
exhilerating! Wow! The camera man gets real close.

He has chats with his girlfriend Sanni. He's quite
strict with her. She wants him to be safer. He climbs
at night now, beautiful visuals. Alex and Sanni
buy a house. For Sanni the point of life is happiness
and not necessarily climbing. Obviously for Alex
it's climbing. He climbs again and makes marks on
the cliff face with chalk for preparation. Alex says
that "Ueli steck" died climbing. You see the magazine
front cover of the article.

The pressure is on. The real climb is scheduled soon.
Alex asks Sanni to leave. It's harsh but he has to
concentrate. She feels sad. The picturesque scenery is
exceptional and memorable. He starts climbing the
rock face. It's without rope. He passes a couple
sleeping on a hammock during his climb hehe. He
continues. He is climbing a vertical crevice. It's
intense. He finishes that. Now he has to hang on
tight for his next couple of moves.

He makes to the last two phases. On to another
crevice. The camera movies in a top view of the
cliff. Beautiful sceneery. He finishes! he calls
Saani. The view is spectacular, awesome.
A normal person would take the rest of the day
off his team says. But Alex then says "Im probably
gonna go hangboarding" hahaha!

"The visuals of the climb are outstanding. But what really
makes this movie come alive is the lead protagonist
'Alex Honnold'. His personality is very unique. He is
totally immersed in his climbing. He shows no fear but
to the extent where you question why he puts himself
through all this"

What a beautiful movie. Simple story line but very effective.
Enjoy the enthralling 1hr 40min.
